近五年高考英语语法填空真题解析 2018年高考题 【2018·全国I】 According to a review of evidence in a medical journal, runners live three years ___61___(long) than non-runners. You don't have to run fast or for long___62___(see)the benefit. You may drink, smoke, be overweight and still reduce your risk of ___63___ (die) early by running. While running regularly cann't make you live forever, the review says it ___64___ (be) more effective at lengthening life___65___ walking, cycling or swimming. Two of the authors of the review also made a study published in 2014___66___showed a mere five to 10 minutes A day of running reduced the risk of heart disease and early deaths from all ___67___(cause). The best exercise is one that you enjoy and will do. But otherwise… it's probably runnin g. To avoid knee pain, you can run on soft surfaces, do exercises to___68___(strength)your leg muscles(肌肉),avoid hills and get good running shoes. Running is cheap, easy and it's always___69___(energy).If you are time poor, you need run for only half the time to get the same benefits as other sports, so perhaps we should all give___70___a try. 【答案】61. longer 62. to see 63. dying 64. is 65. than 66. that which 67. causes 68. strength 69. energetic 70. it unning 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了跑步的好处，它可以帮助人们延年益寿。 63. 考查动名词。你也许喝酒、吸烟或超重，但仍然通过跑步会减少早亡的风险。此处of是介词，其后用动名词。故填dying。 64. 考查动词的时态。医学报告显示：跑步比散步、骑车和游泳更能有效地延长寿命。这里叙述的是一个事实，故用一般现在时。故填is。 65. 考查比较句型。跑步比散步、骑车和游泳更能有效地延长寿命。根据文章中的more effective可知此处填than。 66. 考查定语从句的关系词。此处a study是先行词，其在定语从句中作主语，故填that 或which。
2020年高考英语（全国卷3）试题解读 2020 年的高考刚刚结束。在考试要求、形式和卷面结构上，今年高考与往年基本一致，但是今年的高考与往年相比，有四个新的特点，值得考生和家长注意。 一、选材上更加注重实用性 从今年的全国三卷的题目不难看出，现在的高考英语的文章和题目等，都更偏重生活化的表达。比如阅读的 A 篇生活化痕迹非常明显，甚至是直接来自于生活中的实际文章。阅读 B 篇也是一类偏重生活的内容。C 篇D 篇的主题也都是生活化的表达和实用性较高的内容。 事实上，2015 年高考英语取消语法单选题后，就一直在表现出要偏重实用的决心。英语作为一门语言，有它必备的语言规律。高考英语则是要在考查语言的同时，作为风向标，指导未来中学英语的教学。 既然已经是偏向实用，考生在复习高考时就应该更加多地偏重「理解」，尤其是在学习语言时，要考虑到「这一语言点是为了解决什么表达障碍、为了突出什么表达语境」等因素，不能再死记硬背，尤其不能像以往学习中的状态，盲目追求解题技巧，忽视背后的逻辑理解和应用。 从这个角度来看，英语学习中的「训练体系」就显得格外重要了。在训练时，所有不回归语境，不给考生提供理解的方法，全都应该摒弃。 二、难度上更加考查积累性 在全国三卷的七选五和完形填空中，考查了跟我们的生活息息相关的内容。不少考生反映「太难了」「看不懂」。阅读的 CD 两篇大家也有同样的困惑，因为这些事情比较抽象，涉及到的生词和陌生句式表达较多。
但事实上，这些内容的难度有两面性。如果平时注意做积累训练的同学，会觉得相当简单。不注重这些训练的同学，会觉得非常难。 值得一提的是，这里所谓的「积累训练」，仍然是「训练」，而不是盲目的积累。以笔者的学生为例，他们在考试后纷纷发来微信：“刘旸老师/教主！这次的阅读好多都是训练过的！”这些学生用词是「训练」。对比以往教学中的各种靠多做多练等题海战术的「积累」，「训练」的目的性会更强。所谓的训练，就是拆解考生在解题过程中的各个技术动作，每个技术动作辅以相应的练习。比如阅读的词汇和语法，必须在重视「高频词」和「长难句」的基础上，才能看懂。单这两个板块，就有海量的训练方法和模式。 综上，考生必须打破以往固有的「英语靠积累」的思路，拥抱训练，才可以有所突破。 三、知识上更加偏重运用度 今年的写作题目里，全国三卷考查了求助信，主题是请外教指导课本剧，并且没有给出提纲，而是直接要求考生补充短剧剧情、指导内容、修改要求、会面时间地点等。如果考生对此类题目不熟悉，或者话题不熟悉，是很难有发挥的余地的。 可以看到，虽然题目形式没有太大的变化，但是已经慢慢在开放度上予以加强了。往年考生只需要按照提纲按部就班地翻译即可完成一篇写作，但现在则需要自己补全若干信息。在这种情况下，还要确保自己的句式和词汇都是高水平的。这种对知识的综合运用度，前所未有。

One of us would walk her, another would feed her ,then there were baths, playing catch and many other games .Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One days, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was Wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many dines when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from

主语和谓语的一致 (Agreement between subject and verb) ⒈Definition: 主语要和谓语在人称和数上保持一致叫主谓一致。 ⒉主谓一致包括三个原则：语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。 ㈠语法一致原则：指用作主语的名词词组的中心词和谓语动词在单复数形式上的一致。 ⑴介词短语with, as well as, including, except, except for, but, together, besides, rather than, along with, together with 等修饰主语时，谓语动词的数的形式与介词前面的名词或代词的人 称和数保持一致。 e.g. I, along with my parents, am a football fan. The girl as well as boys likes playing basketball. ⑵由each 和every 修饰的名词以及由every-, any-, some-, no- 构成的复合代词都当作单 数，谓语动词用单数。 e.g. Every hour and every minute is important. Every boy and every girl enjoys the holiday. Someone is waiting for you. Everyone is here. Everything is ready. ⑶动名词（短语），不定式（短语）和从句作主语，谓语动词用单数形式。 e.g. To see is to believe. Walking on the moon is very difficult. What he said is wrong. 注：ⅰ. 在用形式主语it 的句中和在用it 作主语的强调句中，谓语动词总用单数。 e.g. It isn’t obvious who will be the best.

"I used to work in school catering and saw a lot of money being thrown away. I thought that was criminal, so I decided to do something about it," said Italian school chef Tiziano Vicentini. Now, Vicentini has an amazing range of edible plates for schools. The plates are made out of bread dough, so you can eat them afterwards. "These dishes cost a few pennies each and are either eaten by the kids, or go into recycling bins for animal food," explained Vicentini, 50, of Milan. But now other companies are developing edible plates, too. The Edible-Plate Company offers edible plates, bowls, trays and cups. Their products are environmentally-friendly, 100% biodegradable and can be used for all types of catering and home use. And they're made from a natural plant. After use, they can be fed to animals or left to degrade naturally. They also have a range of cutlery（餐具） made from corn and potato starch（淀粉）.
